Whisk the flour, eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and salt into a smooth crepe batter.
Rest the batter for 20 minutes.
Cook thin crepes in a hot pan on both sides.
Melt the sugar in a wide pan until it turns light amber caramel.
Add the orange juice, orange zest, and lemon juice to loosen the caramel.
Whisk the butter into the sauce piece by piece.
Add the orange liqueur and cognac, and warm briefly.
Fold the crepes into quarters and warm them in the sauce for 2 minutes before serving.
💡 Tip: Adding the orange juice before the caramel gets too dark keeps the sauce glossy without bitterness.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve straight from the pan with the sauce and plain vanilla ice cream.
